Thinking about a merger? Some things to consider

As a recession was wreaking havoc on educational institutions, the summer 2009 issue of In Trust included an article on things that theological school leaders should discuss and consider when pursuing a merger or partnership with another school. Written by Robert Cooley, the article is just as applicable today as it was then. The infographic above highlights some of the key takeaways from the piece, but you should read the complete article here. And to download a high-resolution version of this infographic, please click here.

If your school is considering a merger, or any other complex issue, you may contact our Resource Consultants today at 302-654-7770 or resources@intrust.org. Resource Consulting is a free service that connects In Trust Center member institutions to the people and resources that can help them fulfill their missions.
